Grecian told CBR: "The three main characters in Proof - Ginger Brown, Elvis Chestnut and Proof himself - are conspicuously absent, and there are good reasons for that, but it'll be up to readers to speculate as to just why they won't be around a year from now."

He added: "We'll see a very different side of Wayne and some of the other characters, and then, with #26, we'll be returning to the present and beginning a new status quo for the book, which will be very new-reader friendly."

Proof chronicles the adventures of real-life Bigfoot John Prufrock as he tracks down Cryptids - monsters that lack concrete proof of existence.
